A snow-ice weather warning has been issued by Met Eireann

A snow-ice weather warning has been issued by Met Eireann

A snow-ice warning has been issued for the whole of Ireland ahead of Storm Caroline.

Met Eireann issued the status yellow caution on Wednesday, which is in place from 4pm on Thursday December 7 until 4pm Friday December 8. Scattered snow showers are forecast to occur later on Thursday, Thursday night and into Friday. Met Eireann advised that slight-to-moderate accumulations are possible, with up to 3cm in some areas, and some icy stretches forecast, too. The north and northwest counties will be those most at risk, as well as higher ground in other areas of the country. It comes as two status yellow wind warnings were issued on Tuesday. One was a wind warning for Donegal, Galway, Mayo and Kerry, which is due to remain in place until 11pm tonight. Meanwhile, another yellow warning was issued for Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Sligo, Clare and Kerry on Tuesday afternoon. The wind warning will be in place from 3am on Thursday morning until 8pm that evening. The storm, which the UK Met Office have named Caroline, is forecast to pass close to the north coast of Scotland on Thursday morning. Severe winds will affect areas over Scotland, but Met Eireann warned that the storm will also generate strong, blustery winds of Ireland. Gusts between 100 to 110 km/h are forecast, with the strongest winds in coastal areas and over high ground.
